DeSoto Tranny Crossmember

Not a huge update but I have been making some progress on the DeSorta Modified. I have been working on the tranny crossmember and tying in the rear suspension. Mike and I opted to use a crossmember from Speedway with a 6" drop. Once that was cut, positioned, and welded in I bent up some 1.75" tubing that I tied into it. We will then mount the rear ladder bars to these tubes plus it sure strengthens up the frame. It is always fun working with tubing. A lot of different angles going on here. I didn't take any "in progress" photos but here is how it came out.
